Love can come from so many different places. Love doesn't follow a schedule. It can present itself at any time. Are we ready for it or do we run for the hills?

I thought I was in love several times, but the emotional attachment didn't feel the same as the physical attraction. I was sad when these relationships ended but it passed. So, was I really "in" love? They say hindsight is 20/20 and seeing things in the rear view makes them clearer. But just what is the definition of "LOVE" ?.....

LOVE (noun) - an intense feeling of affection

My story - Lying awake at night in bed alone thinking about her was hard. Wondering if she was doing the same thing at the same time was even harder. I first saw her at my sister's funeral. She was in love with my sister, and I could see she was crying. We sat in the parlor a long time talking and crying. I sensed that this girl was special. A caring, compassionate and loving person. I felt a deep desire to get to know her better. We took walks on the beach in front of my sister's house. The first time I kissed her we were sitting on the beach boardwalk. While looking in her eyes I said, "I love you." She said, "I love you too." I could see on her face that her heart felt the same as mine did. At that moment I knew my lifelong search was over.

My sister once said, "Falling in love is easy. Staying in love is a commitment." ❤️

I agree and feel the same way. It’s beautiful and wonderful when you find someone that you really care for and I really like it. When I came to Mississippi I wanted to see what things are like here and found a whole lot more. Being here makes me happy and gives me great comfort. Sometimes you just have to go after a new life with someone special and I am also in love.

Your post is very beautiful, Bonnie.
Love is felt and is difficult to define. I have felt it all my life in different versions. I love and I am loved. Unconditional love is loving someone because they exist, without expecting anything in return. It is giving and sharing time and many other things. Love is a supreme feeling. If we don't love, we exist only half.
